To the editors,
Can you read my printing? I am doing this because
your paper says it requires submissions (sorry - stuffI know you have trouble with the bigger words) to he
typed and double-spaced. Also because I realise you have
an easier time with It, given your obvious low level of
coIledlve (sound it out) literacy (ability to read and
write).
(I) Courts of law allow ism. and thus.don·t belong in
handwritten submissions. So a university newspaper.

On Tuesday November 24, J992, I was present at a GCSU

theme or our "SNOW BALL" changed from a non·

As a regUlar student (

was supponed by only a fcw
of the members. I was made
to fccl unwdcomed and in·
timidated by many. I presentcd a calm argument and
was attacke(' in return by an
unattentive audience.
It is my feeling, that
while the GCSU wishes to be

voting for their own interCSts, not for tho.sc ofstudenlS
